Mental from Chelsea. I thibk its a good signing personally. He is still 27 so this takes him to 32. Think he does really well at chelsea unfortunately Im suprised they would sell him to a direct rival though. City must think they are unstoppable next season to do this Edited July 10, 2022 by Demitri_C 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City must think they are unstoppable next season to do this Realistically, apart from the big Premier League clubs who is going to be spending that amount of money this summer? If they/he wanted him gone they won't have had many options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) Chelsea getting Sterling for £45m looks like a bargain compared to Spurs paying £60m for Richarlason. Even better value compared to Grealish and Lukaku for around £100m each. Edited July 10, 2022 by Genie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a sterling fan but he's a much more effective player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bannedfromHandV Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Yeah it’s a bit of an odd price when you take all into account, then again I guess city don’t need to worry about maximising value on big names when they’re flogging off young players who’ve barely made a match day squad for £15M+ every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And his face to be fair, strange looking dude in my opinion... Alvarez though, interesting one as he won't start as a striker. He'll be on the wing, Foden plays right so presumably competing with you know who for a spot on the left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, I thought he looked like that Todd character from Breaking Bad… The one who shoots the kid on the bike, shoots a young mum and chains Jesse up to be a meth slave for the Nazis… but signing for Man City is a disgusting crime against humanity which puts all of the previously mentioned into perspective… so they obviously aren’t the same person… Todd obviously has some kind of conscience, and he’s a fictional character Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even better value compared to Grealish and Lukaku for around £100m each. Sterling had 1 year left on his contract. He'd have gone for 0 next year. And its not like they are going to miss him. Richarlison had 2 years left and Everton are screwed without him. Grealish had 4 years left and a minimum fee release.... Obviously, whether spurs could have bought Sterling instead of Richarlison is another matter. Not sure they're anything like the same kind of player though so bit of a moot point. Chelsea giving City 45m is the biggest issue here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea giving City 45m is the biggest issue here From the buyer (Chelsea) point of view it doesn’t really matter. Lukaku £100m Grealish £100m Richarlison £60m Sterling £45m Its a standout good deal in comparison which is my point. Sterling for his faults will have much more of an impact than the 3 above him will/did too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sterling for his faults will have much more of an impact than the 3 above him will/did too. I personally think he won't, but then I really don't rate Sterling. I think his undeserved ever presence in the England team has jaded my opinion of him. He misses too many chances, makes too many wrong decisions, has a pretty poor first touch, and a pretty bad understanding of what to do on the ball. His positioning, off the ball movement, and pace, don't make up for the flaws. I expect he'll need to do more "playing football" at Chelsea than he did at City too...which I don't think is a good thing. I guess all the above is relative to how you think Richarlison, Grealish and Lukaku will do. Personally, I think Grealish will have more impact this season, and Richarlison will thrive alongside Kane and Son at Spurs. Be interesting to see who is right come the end of the season! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
